Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Third Amendment to Credit Agreement
On July 11, 2023, Greystone Housing Impact Investors LP (the “Partnership”) entered into a Third Amendment to Credit Agreement and Annex A to Third Amendment (collectively, the “Third Amendment”), with BankUnited, N.A. and Bankers Trust Company (collectively, the “Lenders”), and the sole lead arranger and administrative agent, BankUnited, N.A. (the “Administrative Agent”) which modifies certain provisions of the Credit Agreement dated June 11, 2021, as amended by the First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated November 30, 2021 (the “First Amendment”) and the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated June 9, 2023 (the “Second Amendment”, and collectively with the Credit Agreement, the First Amendment, and the Third Amendment, the “Amended Credit Agreement”). The Partnership paid to the Lenders a commitment fee totaling $160,000 at closing of the Third Amendment. In addition, the Partnership paid the Administrative Agent a $60,000 arrangement fee and a $10,000 administrative fee at closing of the Third Amendment.
The following items are the material amendments to the Amended Credit Agreement accomplished by the Third Amendment. Capitalized terms not defined herein are defined in the Amended Credit Agreement.
Second Amended and Restated Guaranty
On July 11, 2023, an affiliate of the Partnership, Greystone Select Incorporated (“Greystone Select”), entered into a Second Amended and Restated Guaranty with the Administrative Agent (the “Amended Guaranty”) that replaces the First Amended and Restated Guaranty dated November 30, 2011 in its entirety. The Amended Guaranty is enforceable upon the occurrence of (i) an event of default; (ii) the Administrative Agent taking certain actions in relation to the collateral pledged under the Amended Credit Agreement; and (iii) the amounts due under the Amended Credit Agreement are not collected within a certain period of time after the commencement of such actions. The Partnership has an indirect interest in the Amended Guaranty but is not a party to the Amended Guaranty. Greystone Select is subject to financial covenants under the Amended Guaranty related to minimum consolidated liquidity and minimum consolidated total net worth. The material changes in the Amended Guaranty consisted of changes to certain financial covenants of Greystone Select and the addition of cure rights for Greystone Select under certain circumstances.
The foregoing description of the Third Amendment and the Amended Guaranty are a summary and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1, and the Amended Guaranty, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.2 and are incorporated by reference herein.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this report are intended to be covered by the safe harbor for “forward-looking statements” provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by use of statements that include, but are not limited to, phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “future,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “foresee,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “estimates,” “potential,” “continue,” or other similar words or phrases. Similarly, statements that describe objectives, plans, or goals also are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond the control of the Partnership. The Partnership cautions readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, implied, or projected by such forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: defaults on the mortgage loans securing our mortgage revenue bonds and governmental issuer loans; the competitive environment in which the Partnership operates; risks associated with investing in multifamily, student, senior citizen residential properties and commercial properties; general economic, geopolitical, and
financial conditions, including the current and future impact of changing interest rates, inflation, and international conflicts, on business operations, employment, and financial conditions; current financial conditions within the banking industry, including the effects of recent failures of financial institutions, liquidity levels, and responses by the Federal Reserve, Department of the Treasury, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to address these issues; uncertain conditions within the domestic and international macroeconomic environment, including monetary and fiscal policy and conditions in the investment, credit, interest rate, and derivatives markets; adverse reactions in U.S. financial markets related to actions of foreign central banks or the economic performance of foreign economies, including in particular China, Japan, the European Union, and the United Kingdom; the general condition of the real estate markets in the regions in which we operate, which may be unfavorably impacted by increases in mortgage interest rates, slowing economic growth, persistent elevated inflation levels, and other factors; changes in interest rates and credit spreads, as well as the success of any hedging strategies the Partnership may undertake in relation to such changes, and the effect such changes may have on the relative spreads between the yield on investments and cost of financing; persistent inflationary trends, spurred by multiple factors including expansionary monetary and fiscal policy, higher commodity prices, a tight labor market, and low residential vacancy rates, which may result in further interest rate increases and lead to increased market volatility; the Partnership’s ability to access debt and equity capital to finance its assets; current maturities of the Partnership’s financing arrangements and the Partnership’s ability to renew or refinance such financing arrangements; exercising of redemption rights by the holders of the Series A Preferred Units; local, regional, national and international economic and credit market conditions; recapture of previously issued Low Income Housing Tax Credits in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code; geographic concentration of properties related to investments held by the Partnership; changes in the U.S. corporate tax code and other government regulations affecting the Partnership’s business; and the other risks detailed in the Partnership’s SEC filings (including but not limited to, the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K). Readers are urged to consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements.
If any of these risks or uncertainties materializes or if any of the assumptions underlying such forward-looking statements proves to be incorrect, the developments and future events concerning the Partnership set forth in this report may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date of this document. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our expectations and beliefs to change. The Partnership assumes no obligation to update such forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this document or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, unless obligated to do so under the federal securities laws.
